jeff Hankins, of Chicago, one of the
most prominent gamblers in the West
ern country and well known to all the
sporting men in Lafayette, thus de
scribes game OF poker 10 which he
was an eye witness:
at was in Park City, U;ah, in 1867,
when the mining boom in the Nor
mon Territory was at its height. One
night dropped into Towards place
to see friend. and while standing at
the bar my attention WAS called to a
remote corner of the room by crowd
OF men who seemed to be very much
interested in something there. The
bartender told me that Digger Mike
and Frank Payton, a miner and a
gambler, were playing poker, and
knowing both men well, l concluded
that I'd watch them few minutes.
$50 l walked over to the corner and
took up position where | could watch
the players. Digger had five or six
stacks OF checks and big pile of bags
containing gold dust, in all about
| SO, 900, in front Of him, while PAXTON
had about $1,000. Both men played
cautously for while until there was
Ia Jackpot, which Digger opened
with bag of gold dust. Payton
stayed and raised him $3.50, which the
l'Digger' saw, and went $500 lin gold
ldust) better Payton just called this.
and then skinned his hand and called
for one card. Digger dealt it to him,
and then threw $500 worth OF his dust
into the pot, remarking: L don't wan,
'lany.'
"Payton skinned his hand again,
and, after going through the usua
motions of looking at his antagonist
for few minutes, ne saw the $3.50 and
went it $500 harder. Digger was
more prompt in raising this four bags
of dust. and Payton even more
promptly saw the raise and went il
$4,000 better. Neither man was the
least bit nervous, according to all out
ward signs, though each had all his
earthly possessions in front of him and
, in the pot. They continued to raise
each other as they made bet after bet,
. until the Digger shouted for show.
, down, saying he couldn't call another
cent.
both hands went DOWN on the
, board at the same moment, and then
Payton reached over and began to
, scoop in the gold dust and checks. He
had pair of fours, while the Digger
, had been blut1ing on keller. Il didn't
think you had nerve enough to follow
me, Frank was all he said as he got
tup from the table to leave the place, tc
go back to the diggings to toll for more
! gold dust. The sequel of the game is
interesting. Payton left the saloon,
, too, disposing of his winnings to his
! satisfaction, and that was the last time
he was seen, until his body was picked

, about mile from Towards. His

gone, showing that he had fallen q

He Was a QaoI MAN.

"Talk about cooness," exclaimed 6
tall, lean man with sandy mustache
as he walked up and down the cabin
of the ferryboat Baltic few evenings
ago, ''Dick Mulligan was the coolest
man / ever saw. Nothing disturbed
him, and he never went anywhere
without an old violin under his arm,
believe he loved that fiddle better
than he did himself. A few years
ago was down in Natchez, and one
day while strolling along the wharves
watching the brawny negroes loading
the steamers l ran against man sit
ting on pile half asleep.
"Dick Mulligan" l exclaimed, in
great surprise.
"That's me, Jedge,' he answered,
hardly opening his eyes.
"'What are you doing way down
here?' asked, for the last time | had
seen him was in New York.
"'See that scow yonder2' pointing
to stern wheel steamer whose cargo
was nearly complete.
Yes
"'She's mine
"'Take a trip up the river with
me- he said after pause.
AFTER seeing man we went on
board, a2d the boats wheel was soon
thrashing the water into foam.
'Durn me ii | ever saw boat run
like she was After the boat was fair
ly under way the captain, pilot and
engineer lett their posts to go into the
cabin to play poker with two Vicks-
burg gamblers
Dick didn't take any interest in the
game AS soon as he got on board
the boat he hauled out his old fiddle
and began saving away, leaving mt
to amusc myself in any way l liked.
"We hadn't been gone very long
before q heavy bump was felt that
knocked over the poker table and
created good bit of excitement. The
boat had struck snag with such force
as to knock hole in her rs big as a
washtub. The injury to the boat was
bad enough, but the sudden breaking
up ofthe game was regarded as worse.
, Dick never paid the slightest attention
to the affair, but kept right on playing
as if nothing had occurred.
"She's goncr," yelled one of thu
gamblers as he made tor the deck. The
others followed. Dick still kept on
though he heard tho captain yell in Q
hoarse voice: There's five feet o
water in the hold. Git her ashore i
,you can"
"Dick was still saving away, when
several of the passengers, knowing
/ him to be the owner Of the boat, rush
| ed down and yelled out
| "'Do you know that the boat is hal
under water, and sinking .ast?'
| "Yes, | know it, he answered
Tightening q string.
"'She Il be under water in less thar
no time
"'Well, l can't keep her out of it
She always was self-willed boat.
He struck up Life on the Ocean Wave
and the passengers fled.
"Just then the boat careened and
volumes of water rushed in the cabir
windows and down the companion
way. We managed to get off thu
